[Aroid-l] Amorphophallus paeoniifolius

From: greg seed <greggypoos at hotmail.com> on 2009.11.23 at 13:28:15(20357) Hello everyone, I have been trying to grow A. paeoniifolius that I have bought from asian spermarkets, but am having no luck stopping them from rotting. I have tried keeping them in dry compost and out of soil in a cupboard at room temperature, but the same thing happens. Cutting away the affected parts and treating with sulphur powder doesn't help. Should I try to keep them warmer, or will that make it worse? I live in southern England where it tends to be humid - could this be a problem? I have had no problems with the other species I grow, so am a bit baffled. I would really appreciate some help as I am desperate to grow this species! Thanks, Greg.
